Indian Racers Who Are Making Waves In International Events

Jehan Daruvala is a Mumbai-based racer making quite an impact on the F1 world. It would be an understatement to say that he is India's best shot at Formula racing. Jehan was the first Indian to bring home the Formula 2 race trophy held in Bahrain. What's more, the Indian racer also has six podium finishes to date. Daruvala currently represents Carlin Motorsport.

The list of best Formula racers in India would be incomplete without Gaurav Gill. alongside being one of the top formula racers in India, he is also a former MRF driver. He was one of the first Indians to bag the achievement of winning the FIA Asia Pacific Rally Championship.

What's more interesting is that Gill has won the title not once but thrice! Gaurav was also honoured with the Arjuna Award in 2019 for his spectacular performance in motorsports.

Karun Chandhok last competed in Formula E for Mahindra Racing. Chadhok pursued his passion for racing by competing in the 2011 German Grand Prix. In early 2021, it was a great honor for Karun Chandhok when he was appointed to the Board of Directors of Motorsport UK. Among all the Formula racers in India, he is one of the only ones who made it to Formula 1 apart from Narain Karthikeyan.

Narain Karthikeyan is India’s Formula Racer, but he is also a Padma Shri receiver. This Coimbatore-born Formula racer began his journey in Formula in 1992. With several wins and achievements, he quickly rose to become the best Formula racer in India.
